The increasing demand for pollution-free energy is motivating the mankind towards solar ‎Photovoltaic (PV) based systems. Though PV systems are known to be maintenance-free, the ‎performance of the system has to be monitored regularly to ensure maximum utilization of ‎PV power and to reduce the effect of shading and orientation of the PV module on the ‎output power. Therefore, knowledge of the characteristics of the PV module is necessary for ‎the design of PV systems. A low-cost solar PV trainer kit, which can be used as an ‎educational tool, is developed to study various effects of operating environmental conditions ‎on the PV module output. The purpose of the solar PV trainer kit is to provide an indoor test ‎facility for students to study the characteristics of the module for varying solar insolation, tilt ‎angle, and temperature. It also enables us to find out the various parameters of the PV module, such as ‎the maximum power point, fill factor, and efficiency of the module. The characteristics ‎obtained from the prototype are presented to validate the feasibility of the developed kit to ‎be utilized in indoor applications.‎
